The French Imperial Eagle (Aigle de drapeau, lit. "flag eagle") refers to the figure of an eagle on a staff carried into battle as a standard by the Grande Armée of Napoleon I during the Napoleonic Wars.
Although they were presented with regimental colours, Napoleon's regiments tended to carry at their head the Imperial Eagle.
